THE GIRL EFFECT

Incredibly powerful video...and its only text!

The Girl Effect, n.

The powerful social and economic change brought about when girls have the opportunity to participate in their society.

There
are 600 million adolescent girls living in poverty in the developing
world. By giving one of these girls a chance, you start the girl
effect. When girls have safe places to meet, education, legal
protection, health care, and access to training and job skills, they
can thrive. And if they thrive, everyone around them thrives, too.
